creating a file in hdfs should not automatically create the parent directories

                 Key: HADOOP-2759
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2759
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: dfs
            Reporter: Owen O'Malley
             Fix For: 0.17.0


I think it would be better if HDFS didn't automatically create directories for 
the user. In particular, in clean up code, it would be nice if deleting a 
directory couldn't be undone by mistake by a process that hasn't been killed 
yet creating a new file.
